Here, we review the host genetic studies concerning human leucocyte antigens, antibody receptors, immune/inflammatory mediators, attachment molecules, cytokines and other factors exerting an immunoregulatory effect as well as the current genome-wide association studies. We also discuss some viewpoints on future challenges related to the design of safe and effective prevention and treatment options., Tropical Medicine and Health, 39(4SUPPLEMENT), pp.S73-S81; 2011}, pages = {S73--S81}, title = {Host genetic susceptibility to severe dengue infection}, volume = {39}, year = {2011} }
